Mastering for Vinyl
If not strictly artistically important, don't exaggerate compression in the mastering process.
In order to archive a "loud" vinyl it is not necessary to compress the hell out of your music!!
High frequencies or vocals with a lot of sibilance at high levels are inappropriate for vinyl.
Avoid out of phase below 200Hz
Correlation should not be above 90°
If you are really looking for the best sounding Vinyl Record, please provide us with a uncompressed
mixdown
with headroom and a second one which is your version of the Master for our Reference.Mastering for
Vinyl is not included in the standard DMM-Vinyl-Cutting prices.
